The 2018 U.S. domestic calendar closes with one last double UCI weekend. While other riders are out west in Oklahoma, the rest of the U.S. cyclocross peloton will be in Hendersonville, North Carolina for the 2018 North Carolina Grand Prix.
Last year’s race featured relatively epic snowy and muddy conditions, and this year’s race appears to be headed for a dévà vu all over again situation.
